**We continue to be named one of the top law firms in our particular field. Fortunately, or unfortunately, we have so many awards that we’d have to update ourselves on a monthly basis. When you come to our firm, you can see all our awards**

Location & History

We are located in the Heart of Eastlake — halfway between Fremont and the Amazon campus. Easy access on and off I-5, in the midst of the Google, Tableau and Facebook campuses but also a hop, skip and jump from Expedia. And because of the 520 Bridge, we are just as close to Microsoft and the Eastside. The "I-5 North/Roanoke" sign at the end of the 520 Bridge might as well have our firm name on it. There is free street parking around our building on Eastlake Avenue and (sometimes) an open space in our parking lot. We are an award winning group — one of America's Best Firms (see our icons). Let us help you regain stability. The best way to monitor our fee structure is to look at Wolfgang Anderson's AVVO website, which may answer any questions you might have.

We have never advertised

The firm relies solely upon word of mouth
(The best accolade of all)

We've been doing it longer than anyone else. The firm was founded in 1977, and the two original partners are still with the firm.

Wolfgang has been practicing and has punched his time clock for 50 years.

Partners are named Super Lawyers and are also members of the American Academy of Matrimonial Lawyers.

We have covered a wide variety of issues arising in the area of family law.

Read what has been written on Avvo.com for Wolfgang. No other firm even has as many testimonials.

We're reasonable and work fast and expeditiously, resulting in lower fees.

Why do we say that "We Are Family Law?" Because Anderson, Fields, Dermody & McIlwain, Inc., P.S., has been a family law partnership since 1977, one of the longest running family law firms in the Seattle area. We provide comprehensive family law and divorce representation from award-winning attorneys who know every aspect of Washington family law.

We believe that you deserve the best legal service. That is why our representation is not only exceptional, it is also affordable. Our fees are reasonable – just $300 per hour, and we offer your first one hour consult for $100. We represent families of modest means, as well as high-asset individuals such as physicians, athletes, business owners and musicians. Whether you need help with an uncontested divorce and child support issues, or the valuation and separation of sophisticated financial holdings, our experienced lawyers can protect your rights.

Our resident expert on Appeals is H. Michael Finesilver (f/k/a Fields). Appeals are a very complex area of law. If you have questions, come and see him.

We Wrote the Book on Washington Divorce

Many years ago lawyers Wolfgang R. Anderson and H. Michael Finesilver (f/k/a Fields) wrote a book called Understanding Family Law in Washington. The book reduced the statutes and cases in the divorce/dissolution area into an easy-to-read manual and summarized what takes place in a proceeding.

Mr. Anderson recently authored his own book entitled Divorce, Dissolution and the End of Relationships: What's It All About? While the subject is the same as Understanding Family Law in Washington, it is Mr. Anderson's work product to update the subject. Mr. Anderson's book may be of assistance to you while navigating the course of a failed marriage. It covers property division, maintenance, child support, parenting, modifications and "what's it all about?" Mr. Anderson's book can be purchased at our office. Call us at 206-905-4290 or toll-free 866-970-4558. It can also be purchased for Kindle through Amazon.

Tomorrow Comes Twice, a provocative novel written by Wolfgang R. Anderson, involving a divorce between two judges. You can purchase through Amazon.
